My Kitten Scarf

A recent cold snap motivated me to finish this infinity scarf - the free pattern 'Calm Cowl' is on Ravelry and it is very easy (I also repeated the stripe detail on each side).

I treated myself to this gorgeous yarn from Soft Like Kittens - I used the 4ply Noodle Sock weight and a 5mm crochet hook, and it came out very light and delicate. I am obsessed with turquoise at the moment and this was a test colour, but I love the other Soft Like Kittens colours too (Annette from Soft Like Kittens is so clever, she was also Nut and Bee stationery!)

I had to block it a bit afterwards (my casting on chain stitches are always a bit wobbly), but it came out pretty tidy and just fits around my neck twice.
